Police to conduct training exercise at RRISD high school

ROUND ROCK, Texas (KXAN) -- Round Rock ISD said there will be a large police vehicle presence at McNeil High School on Wednesday from 7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. while law enforcement conducts training exercises, according to a social media post.

McNeil High School is located at 5720 McNeil Drive near the intersection of W Parmer Lane.

Round Rock ISD did not specify what kind of training police will be conducting.

This exercise comes after various agencies in Hays County conducted an active shooter response exercise at Cypress Springs Elementary in Dripping Springs Independent School District last Friday.

As of September 2023, the state required school boards ensured that each school campus has at least one armed security officer present during school hours among other new safety features.
